Skepticism that normally focuses on pseudoscientific claims can also be directed at "established" principles of behavior. After discussing some ways in which empirically-derived principles can potentially mislead, as an illustrative example I describe some reasons to wonder whether our understanding of punishment is as established as sometimes assumed.
通常聚焦于伪科学主张的怀疑主义也可以指向行为的“既定”原则。在讨论了一些基于实证得出的原则可能会产生误导的方式之后,作为一个示例,我描述了一些理由来质疑我们对惩罚的理解是否像有时所认为的那样是既定的。
